Good shots, my friend. Good of you to think of shooting from different POV inside the venue. Those kind of shots give us a feeling of what it’s like to be there… more than any TV coverage can.

From these shots and your accounts here and tweets, I get the feeling that the players are all very fan-friendly and always seem to have a moment to share a word, shake hands, or sign for the fans. Don’t know about other British sportsmen, but I know American baseball, NFL, and NBA players tend to be very diffident or if they are cooperative, many do it grudgingly rather than gladly. Of course there are exceptions who are gracious, but they are getting more and more remote as fans make commerce out of autographs and are more demanding. I guess it’s a two-way street.
